Hi, I am building a newsletter system, but I'm wondering how to incorporate it into the django admin. Just recently I started discovering the capabilities of the admin interface, and finding out how things are supposed to be working. I want to make an interface which follows the django "zen".
My situation is as follows, I have to models which need to be incorporated into the newsletter, An agenda, with events, and a messaging system to display announcements. My newsletter model has two manytomanyfields pointing to the event and the message models. What I really want to do, is at creation of a new newsletter, the user selects the events and messages that should be displayed in the newsletter. Then, when the user saves the newsletter, a custom view is displayed (The newsletter is not yet saved). In which the user can select the order in which the objects (messages and events) should be displayed.(ie via drag and drop) The next step is confirmation, so the user sees the entire newsletter, entirely formatted. Is this the best way to do this kind of thing?, or should it be approached differently? Another thing: At the event model, it is unnecessary to display all the events in the admin. How can I make sure only the events coming (ie date__gte=datetime.now()) are displayed in the admin? Thanks in advance for your help.
